COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- On day two of the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships, redshirt junior Maggie Ewen captured her second-straight First-Team All-American in as many days with a sixth-place finish in the weight throw on Saturday at Texas A&M's Gilliam Indoor Stadium. She becomes just the third ASU female thrower to earn First-Team All-American honors in four throwing events -- the shot put (indoor or outdoor), weight throw, hammer throw and discus.
After entering the final three rounds in ninth place, Ewen's fifth throw of 20.97m (68-9.75) moved her up into sixth overall.
"It was a fantastic weekend for Maggie," said throwing coach Brian Blutreich.
